Champions league against ac Milan- the other one. I just felt we would never do it and unfortunately we didn't. I remember seeing the fans on tv, hopping the turnstiles and thinking worrying thoughts about crowd control and it stayed with me the whole match. Thank god there were no problems in the end but it shook me. If memory serves h and g had just taken over as well and it felt like we were about to return to our legendary status. That is the real pain of it. Great question though.

Has to be the 2008-09 and 2013-14, i. e., missing out on the PL title.

For me, Johncrow, there are a few disappointments.

The biggest one was the 1988 FA Cup Final. To think that we were 2 goals away from being the first team to do the double in 3/ 4 seasons (still can't stand Michael Thomas either! ) is just maddening!

The first final I watched was Hysel, and that was sad in a whole different way : (

Finally, the biggest swings of emotion in a cup final, well that's jointly held by FA Cup 86, FA Cup 06 and Instanbul! The latter two will be well covered by others, but in 86, I was 10, and SOOO cross with Brucie for letting in Linekar's shot that I started stabbing his Panini sticker with a pin! Alls well that ends well, though!

1987, Littlewoods Cup final, my second trip to Wembley, my first Wembley outing being 86 when we beat Everton 3-1 in the FA Cup.

We played Arsenal and lost 2-1, Rushey scored the opener and when ever Rush scored first we went onto win, not this time and the duck was broken. Charlie Nicholas scored twice for the Gunners.

1989 was also a tough one to swallow, losing to Arsenal once again, seconds to go Barnes received the ball out on the left and loses possession to Kevin Richardson, the rest is history :- ( - To be fair, the kop stayed intact and gave Arsenal the applause.

It has to be when we lost the title to Arsenal in the dying seconds, Michael Thomas goal that has to be the biggest gutter.

Have to admit the most angry I have ever been was the 1997 semi final against PSG when James once again destroyed any chance we had in that second leg
I still to this day cannot look at a picture of James without wanting to shout at him.

Champions League 2007! We had the team to win it but just didn't produce on the night.

The FA Cup against Utd comes a close second, only because it was the Mancs.

Not a cup final but Michael Thomas goal 89 still hurts.

A tie btw the CL final of 2007 and the EL final of 2016. Rafa IMO, got his tactics wrong and should have gone after Milan esp. in the 2nd half. We were too cautious and it played right into their hands and by the time we went two up top and scored, it was too late. Crouch comes on earlier and to me, it's a diff game cos that Milan team were dead on their legs.

The EL final was a mix, IMO. In the first half, we were the better team and we were robbed with two penalties not given esp. at 1-0. This is where luck counts and Seville got a reprieve and in the second half, we collapsed mainly due to conceding so early. Our team was not mentally tough enuff and at least not as tough as it is now and not as good as it is now. Well, we live and learn and hopefully, the next final will be THE ONE.

I'm fortunate that since I've started supporting liverpool we've won most finals we've been in! first one I remember watching live in the wee hours of the morning was the michael owen final vs arsenal. got myself a detention the next at high school cos I walked in with my liverpool top on ( a really budget one! ) fell to my knees and yelled "Liverpool" directed at my best mate who is a gunners fan!

to the question, the most disappointing final defeat for me was the 2nd CL final vs AC Milan. actually thought we played better there than we did the year we won it! and how cool it would have been i nmy lifetime to have seen us win 'ol big ears a couple times in 3 years!

The Michael Thomas goal for sure, I still ask why Houghton didn't take him down anytime I see a replay. Back then, no professional fouls were straight reds - this wasn't enforced until early 90's if memory serves, so only would have been a free-kick aaaaggghhh!

The league cup final against City in Klopps first year, just because it was the first final (or knockout game of any sort) that I managed to get tickets for and was right behind the goal they were taking penalties into.
